MAGNUS

Better Workflow, Enhanced Safety, Lowest Operating Cost

MAGNUS

 

Conventional processing of biospecimen relies on an outdated technology that has inherent limitations in terms of safety, process time, workflow and uptime. Milestone has developed a new platform of tissue processors, EVO and MANGUS, to drastically reduce operational costs, achieve same day diagnosis with improved workflow flexibility, and reduce repetitive and harmful tasks for histotechs.

MAGNUS is an automatic ultra-rapid dual retort tissue processor, with an open system that is xylene-free. MAGNUS operates with standard 5-liter or 1-gallon commercial containers, eliminating the need for decanting and cutting reagent replacement time

Why MAGNUS?

  • NO DECANTING OF REAGENTS
    Valuable Tech time saving. No chemical spills nor breathing of toxic fumes. Safer for Techs and Patient Tissues.
  • DUAL MODE: NO “CLEANING CYCLES”
    Major reagent cost savings.No 45 min wait for the next processing run.
  • THE LOWEST OPERATING COSTS
    Change paraffin only every 30 days. No cleaning reagents. No clog risk – paraffin is not pumped through the unit. Industry lowest downtime for any workflow.
  • CONTINUOUS LOAD DUAL RETORT
    Reduced specimen turnaround time. Top workflow flexibility = stress-free workflow. Same day diagnosis.
  • SAFE BY DESIGN
    Xylene-free processing. Split manifold to segregate water-based vs alcohol-based reagents.
    Real-time monitoring with MileWATCH (optional). Reagent contamination ultrasonic sensor (optional).
  • LONGER PRE-SOAKING FIXATION
    Large tissues ultrarapid processing allows for longer formalin overnight pre-soaking with tissues ready to be cut first thing in the morning. Improved tissue quality. Almost zero reprocessed blocks
  • AUTO-EMBEDDING
    Time/Cost savings. Helps overcome personnel shortages.

Engineered for Traceability

MAGNUS is compatible with MileWATCH software, which tracks the specimen’s data, starting from its collection in the Surgical Theatre, and continuing throughout the Pathology Laboratory through processing.

Milestone R-Tracker, an automatic rack scanner, is also available for automatic and fast cassette scanning.

Auto embedding

Engineered for Auto-Embedding

Milestone’s Xylene free tissue processors offers auto-embedding with Synergy Rack System, a unique patented technology. The specially designed rack has a leverage system that allows the molds and cassettes to sit in two positions according to the phase of processing, producing embedded cassettes at the end of the wax phase.

Through dedicated racks and consumables, it can simultaneously achieve processing and automatic embedding. All types of tissues and dimensions can be processed and embedded with this method.
